In LeBron James' backyard, Steph Curry used his monologue as ESPYs host to take a few shots at the erstwhile King. “I’m the second NBA player to host this award show," Curry said. "LeBron James, he hosted this award show back in 2007, after losing in the NBA Finals. So yes, you guessed it, this feels better.”
That wasn't the only joke the Golden State Warriors superstar had for LeBron. “It’s just inspiring to see that strategy of buying old superstars pay off for a local team around here,” referring to the Rams' Super Bowl title and the Lakers' disastrous team-building strategy.
